Whisky Na Sia Single Cask Series 5Y Peated Cask Strength 70cl - Isle of Raasay

Na Sia Single Cask Series 5Y Peated Cask Strength, from the Isle of Raasay, presents an immediate, forthright character. Peat takes center stage: dense, compact smoke accompanied by a hint of sea salt and citrus zest that cleanses the palate. On the nose there are also notes of warm malt and raw honey, while the spirit's natural alcohol provides warmth and depth without masking the clarity of the aromas. The texture is direct and youthful, with a mineral tension that supports the profile.

On the palate it offers a dense, bold mouthful; the smokiness intertwines with malty sweetness and light black pepper spice; the cask strength delivers structure and persistence, peppery hits and a finish that stays saline and slightly bitter. It's a whisky that demands space: a drop of water opens the bouquet, and it pairs best with aged cheeses, smoked fish or grilled meats. Ideal for those seeking intensity and character without frills.
